After walking through a few deserted alleys and passing through a few dirty narrow paths, they finally found their destination in this slum-like place.

A small and inconspicuous courtyard.

Cui Miao looked at this silent courtyard and had a feeling of unreality.

Especially when he went into the garden and looked at the 'people' who were dressed in black and hooded, and whose whole faces were shrouded in darkness.

Only the man in black who was in the lead, after seeing the two of them coming, took off the hood that covered his face, revealing the purple-black face with an angular, slender face with a sinister smile.

"Master Li, it's been a long time. ”

Even at this moment, Casey's smiling appearance of bending down towards others made Cui Miao feel a sense of palpitations.

Every time he met Governor Casey, he could only bend down respectfully like he was now, like an honest pug.

"Governor Casey, everything else is fine, but it went well with the Sichuan River thieves today?"

When Li Dashan saluted, he deliberately went a little deeper than Casey.

Although in terms of official rank, among the demon clans that have always obeyed the martial artists, the master of the Wanshou Servant has a transcendent status, if the master of the other doors arrives, I am afraid that he will be half a step higher than Casey.

But he is the ninth gate, a human race.

"Where can the talk go well, come on, come on, please sit down, hold this and prepare to ask your brother for a few tricks, hahaha. ”

The gathering of the two bigwigs inevitably sat down and exchanged pleasantries.

Cui Miao also took advantage of this gap to raise her head slightly and look at the figures beside Governor Casey.

Then he looked stunned.

This Governor of Casey was accompanied by another Terran who was definitely not familiar with him, and he did not think that he was from the Ninth Gate.

One of them, a beautiful Terran woman, would have thought that this was Governor Casey's plaything from somewhere if it weren't for her fierce temperament that rejected people from thousands of miles away, and the obviously valuable sword at her waist.

If the woman was probably a bodyguard coerced and lured by Governor Casey, what was the origin of this other yellow-haired young man with a thin face and a pale face like a patient?

To round strength, Cui Miao is confident that one can beat him a hundred.

He couldn't help but look at Casey twice.

Don't...... What special fetishes do you have, Lord Doge?

"Cui Miao. ”

Cui Miao, who was thinking wildly, woke up in shock, this was not the place to desert him, and when he heard the call of the master, he hurriedly replied:

"Master, the apprentice is here. ”

His peasant master, when he came to Governor Casey, was also very serious, and he still casually crossed his legs, shaking his feet that were not even wearing shoes.

"Why don't you report to Governor Casey about the situation in Shattered Sky Valley?"

"Yes!"

Cui Miao immediately told in detail everything that happened in the Shattered Sky Valley before, and he had nothing to hide in the face of Master and Casey, telling everything the truth, and even his later helpless appearance was clearly explained.

Before he came, his master asked him a word.

"If you don't want to cause trouble, then what to say later, don't think about beautifying yourself and reaping benefits, otherwise there will be an accident, and I won't be too lazy to intercede for you at that time. ”

Casey quietly listened to Cui Miao's words, and then said to Li Dashan beside him: "It is worthy of being Lord Li's apprentice, ordinary martial artists see two martial artists fighting, I am afraid that they will have slipped away a long time ago, and they can still hold the little girl of the royal family of Nabo Haiguo hostage to the end." ”

Li Dashan pursed his lips after hearing this, "This kid is fine, he is tough to the end, even if he is knocked unconscious, it is possible for the Blue Devil to save his life, he has to slip away first, can the Blue Devil still take care of him?"

He looked at Cui Miao without being salty, and drank the expensive tea leaves in the cup like drinking boiled water.

"This kid is most afraid of death. ”

Casey, still with his ugly and eerie smile, replied, "Only those who are afraid of death can survive to the end, this is a merit." ”

Then he suddenly turned his head and asked Cui Miao, "Do you think that this operation is full of suspicions and there are many things wrong?"

Cui Miao was stunned for a moment, and before she could answer, Casey's hoarse and harsh voice sounded again.

"Do you think that it seems that everyone on the demon clan's side is deliberately avoiding the Shattered Sky Valley, and instead let you take a group of insignificant people to die?"

Casey was very serious about the word death.

Cui Miao was terrified in his heart, he never expected Governor Casey's question to be so direct, if he nodded directly, wouldn't it be to question the action command of his superiors face to face?

He glanced at his master, but saw that the other party was looking at his nose and nose, and he didn't mean to speak at all.

His fingers pressed violently against his ring with a trembling hand, and he said firmly:

"Back to the Governor, I did think so. ”

Perhaps the walls of the courtyard were too high, or perhaps the branches and foliage of the few trees scattered in the garden were too luxuriant, so that the remnant sun, which still had a trace of afterglow, could not give too much light and warmth to this small courtyard in the slums.

Only the gloom and depression of the court were left.

Except for Casey, a dozen or so people behind him remained silent from beginning to end, standing behind him like majestic statues.

When Cui Miao spoke, he could always vaguely feel that under the hood where he couldn't see his face clearly, all the eyes hidden in it were locked on him.

This suffocating sense of oppression made him sweat and sweat coldly from the beginning.

And at this moment, this tension undoubtedly reached its peak.

As a result, Cassian Clap her hands.

"Hahaha, Master Li really has a hand in accepting apprentices, it's not enough to be afraid of death, blindly escaping often dies faster, if you want to live, you have to have courage. ”

Hearing Casey's words, Cui Miao didn't dare to relax.

This... Is it complimenting him?

Casey's scarlet eyes looked at Cui Miao, and there was really some tangible appreciation in her eyes.

"You can rest assured, you are not responsible for the defeat of the Battle of Shattered Sky Valley, and even lost an important magic weapon because of it, the imperial court will not be harsh on such a meritorious person, and your honor and reward will not be less, I will also report the magic weapon you are forced to use, but the imperial court will also give you items of the same value. ”

The demon clan is well known in the court that Governor Casey is cruel to his enemies, and sometimes even a little perverted, but he has always been good for his own people.

Hearing this, Cui Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the end, I believed Master's words and said my true feelings, and it was indeed correct.

And Casey's words are not finished.

"As for your doubts, I will try to answer them as best I can, after all, there are other people here, and I must be quite curious about this. ”

It was the beautiful woman who listened to the clouds and stood silently behind him.

Casey said in an orderly manner:

"First, Master Li and I didn't know in advance that the Divine Envoy could have the strength of Martial Venerable, but as far as what I have learned so far, I don't quite believe that he cultivated to reach the Martial Venerable Realm, I'm afraid he borrowed it by relying on external forces, otherwise he would have used it a long time ago if he had such strength. ”

Zi Tingyun's eyelids lifted slightly, and his surprised expression disappeared in a flash.

She felt that after this subtle movement of herself, a torch-like gaze locked on her.

The Master of the Ninth Gate, who sat across from Governor Casey.

"Second, before the incident, the five Martial Sects did set off, including the genius Martial Sect of the Fourth Gate, Vidal. But all of them happened to be stopped by reinforcements from Liren Villa. ”

"Third, I'm going to congratulate Master Li first, that's right, this operation is mainly a test, whether I can kill the divine envoy with one blow, I'm not sure, with the Blue Devil here, it is best to capture the divine envoy and the princess in one fell swoop, it doesn't matter if you can't.

So he gave Master Li a favor and asked him to take the opportunity to clean up the useless marginal characters of the ninth gate. ”

After hearing this, Cui Miao bowed deeply towards Casey and bowed her hand.

"Thank you, Governor Casey, for answering your questions. ”

Governor Casey didn't deny it from beginning to end that he, Cui Miao, was a bait leader who went to test the truth of the Shattered Sky Valley.

This made Cui Miao feel a little more at ease.

Casey suddenly said behind him, "Vuitton, is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

A slightly old voice replied, "My lord said it very clearly, and I understand it below." ”

Cui Miao looked in the direction of the voice, and the demon clan who answered came from the back of this group of black-clothed people.

And this time, Cui Miao looked at the demon clan's martial artist under the black hood, reflecting a faint golden light.

This warrior is...... Chitose group?
